Founded in 1976 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, PX Group is the number one in the field of metallurgy. The Group has ten companies to its name, with around six hundred employees split between the companies, which are based mainly in Switzerland and Malaysia (Swiss Profile). For two generations, PX Group has been the perfect representation of a family business. In the 2000s, founder and current Chairman Pierre-Olivier Chave passed the operational torch to his two sons, Philippe and Sylvain.
Through its strong and inspiring corporate culture, the Group’s mission is to uphold its family values and ensure the personal fulfillment of its employees, while reconciling economic and industrial challenges, both in Switzerland and internationally. This close, family-based management is a key aspect of the company’s management, mission and vision.
Every employee is an entrepreneur, making improvements in their work, actively collaborating with colleagues and applying their skills far beyond the job itself. At PX Group, we apply an “objective-based” management approach, which enables us to involve employees in the development of their work. This allows each individual to become more involved, and improve communication with their colleagues and superiors.
